Hi, The only thing I can think in a hurry, with respect to issue #1, it seems that kannel objects to your name variable. I would try changing name to a single letter, i.e. "A" or "B", max 2 bytes and retry. Or increase length to 5.
Sorry, I don't have the time to help with the rest.

Hi Guys, Sorry to bother you all again but I am still having few issues. I tried past few days on my own but I can’t seem to get around these. I would appreciate any help. Alejandro, I am attaching the logs as you requested last time. Issue #1 The TLV’s or the custom var’s are not capturing the meta-data. I contacted my SMSC provider and they said they send all relevant data so there is something in the application that needs to work properly. Please check the attached configuration file and the relevant piece of log from the bearerbox. I see this error in the bearerbox may be that is the problem Error SMPP: Optional field (my-custom-var) with invalid length (5) (should be 2) dropped. However if you look at my configuration file I set the length to 2 only so I am not sure why its taking it as 5. Issue #2 When a message is received all characters come in properly except the $ sign it shows some weird star sign with a question mark in it however all other special characters appear fine. I tried all 1,2,3 of alt-charset settings in the config and the result is the same. For this I see another error in the bearerbox log file (attached) 2009-10-05 15:11:43 [13883] [6] ERROR: Failed to convert string from <UTF-8> to <1> - probably broken type names. 2009-10-05 15:11:43 [13883] [6] ERROR: Failed to convert msgdata from charset <UTF-8> to <1>, will send as is. Issue #3 I configured sqlbox and there were no errors however, when a new message comes in sqlbox automatically terminates and closes down. Needless to say it doesn’t send any messages that I insert in its send_sms table. I am not sure if this is the right place to discuss this though. Attached with this email you will also find the smsbox log and the config file. Issue #4 Last but not the least suddenly I started getting an error in the response to submit_sm from my SMSC 2009-10-05 15:11:43 [13883] [6] ERROR: SMPP[smsc1]: SMSC returned error code 0x0000042a (Vendor-specific error, please refer to your SMPP provider) in response to submit_sm. You will see this also in the logs. All messages come in properly though. I appreciate you guys taking the time to help with this. Thanks Karan
